Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / Re: [REQ] Tagcloud and virtual folders based on Tags

« on: October 16, 2006, 01:56:28 PM »

Hi!

Jo, sowas in der Art meinte ich. Schön wäre es halt, wenn das auf jeder Seite angezeigt würde und wenn die Anzeige als Tagcloud realisiert würde. Im Grunde finde ich die Art und Weise, wie das bei mister-wong.de oder auch del.icio.us realisiert ist, schon sehr gut und sehr einfach (für den Besucher, vlt. nicht unbedingt programmiertechnisch *G*).

Gruß,
Alexander

Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / [REQ] Tagcloud and virtual folders based on Tags

« on: October 16, 2006, 12:45:37 PM »

Hello!

I'm looking for a MOD which enables navigation and searching on the image gallery with so-called "Tagclouds", like they are known from sites like mister-wong.de or del.icio.us. That is, I'd like to see a list of all (or the most used) tags ("keywords") and would like to be able to click on such a tag. After that's done, only those pictures are to be shown, which have this tag. If there are "related" tags, they should be shown as well and it should be possible to add these tags to the search.

Eg. have a look at the following two screenshots:
 

On the first screenshot, I selected the tag "fun" on mister-wong.de. On the 2nd, I show what's shown after I clicked on the "+" to the left of "internet" on the 1st screenshot. I'm then searching for "internet" AND "fun". Those tags are related, as there are bookmarks (entries), which feature both tags.

The good thing about this is, that the user doesn't have to know how the keywords are named. For example, suppose that there is a picture of a Coca Cola bottle - is it tagged with "Coke" or "Coca Cola"? He doesn't have to know this, as the system would only show "Coke" (or "Coca Cola").

I know that 4images currently supports searching for keywords, but this requires that a user knows what keywords exist on the site (ie. "Coke" vs. "Coca Cola").

A navigation relying on tags would also render folders obsolete, as tags can be seen as a sort of "virtual folder". Eg. suppose you've got a number of pictures showing cats. Currently, ie. with folders, you'd create a folder and name it "Cats". You'd then store all the pictures showing cats in this folder. With tags, you'd tag the pictures with the "Cat" tag and the user would then select the "Cat" tag and see all the pictures with Cats on them - ie. he'd get the same he'd get, when all the pictures were in a Cat (or Cats?) folder.

Does anyone know of such a MOD for 4images? If not, does anyone maybe know of a image gallery software (for Linux servers), which supports this? Or of a hosting service, which features this? flickr.com only seems to support searching for *ONE* tag, so it's not QUITE what I'm looking for,

Thanks a lot,
Alexander

Mods & Plugins (Releases & Support) / Re: [Mod] Show original image in new window by clicking on image

« on: May 01, 2006, 12:24:05 AM »

Hm, reg. my question a few minutes ago: As I wrote, there's no line with:

Code: [Select]

$templates_used = 'details,header';. But, there IS:

Code: [Select]

$main_template = 'details';It is right in the beginning of the file. And there, I replaced it with

Code: [Select]

if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['big']) || isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['big'])) {
$main_template = 'big';
}else{
$main_template = 'details';
}
Is that right?

Attached, you can also find a patch against the 4images 1.7.2 files.

I'm having problems with the additions V@no made. He wrote:

4. Open details.php file.

4.1. Find:
Code:
$templates_used = 'details,header';
$main_template = 'details';


Hm, in my details.php (from an unmodded 1.7.2), there's no line containing "templates_used":

u-alexander-skwar-name@hetzner ~/web/html $ grep templates_used details.php
u-alexander-skwar-name@hetzner ~/web/html $

Where's the following code to be added?

Code: [Select]

if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['big']) || isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['big'])) {
$templates_used = 'big,header';
$main_template = 'big';
}else{
$templates_used = 'details,header';
$main_template = 'details';
}
Could somebody please post the line number?

Or, even better: Could somebody please provide a patch (ie. the output from "diff -u")?

Thanks,
Alexander

Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / Mod for having 3 images / full size image in 4images?

« on: January 22, 2006, 01:59:56 PM »

Hello!

I'd like to be able to have THREE images for each image on my website. One should be the tiny thumbnail, one should be the one that's currently shown on the details.php page and the new one should be a "full size" image. Thich should be shown when a visitor clicks on the image on the details.php page.

Is there such a MOD available?

Thanks a lot,
Alexander Skwar

Mods & Plugins (Releases & Support) / Re: [MOD] Dynamic Page Title for v1.7 & v1.7.1

Hello!

Attached, you can find a diff against the 1.7.1 files. This diff can easily applied by running:

Code: [Select]

patch -p1 < mod-dynamic-page-title_4images-1.7.1.patch.txt
You can find the patch also on my homepage at http://alexander.skwar.name/4images-patches/mod-dynamic-page-title_4images-1.7.1.patch

For me, that's a lot easier to read than those plain text commands and also a lot less error prone...

Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / Short URL Mod which does NOT require mod_rewrite?

« on: January 22, 2006, 12:24:29 PM »

Hello.

I found the "[Mod] Search Engine Friendly URLs aka Short URLs" in the "Mods & Plugins (Publishing & Support)" forum.

Does anybody know of a 4images Mod which does NOT require the use of mod_rewrite? In principle this should be possible, if the URLs would look somewhat like

  http://example.net/details.php/4711

This should be translated to

  http://example.net/details.php?image_id=4711

Same for categories.php etc.pp..

Does anybody know of such a mod?

Thanks a lot,
Alexander
